Hudson, admitting that he could not compete with the major forces in terms of research capabilities, implored Caesar III to concentrate the Kingdom’s resources on this endeavor.
The outco is not yet apparent, but at least the Wizard’s Association of the Kingdom has taken on this burden, with several Alchemist Masters experienced in making magic crossbows joining the research team.
The technology owned by the kingdom does not equate to that owned by the dostic nobles, but the dostic major nobles can purchase the magic crossbows produced by the kingdom.
Hudson dared not hope that the magic crossbows produced by the kingdom would be advanced.
It will suffice as long as they can reach the world-class standards.
Once everyone possesses such weapons and equipnt, everyone will be on the sa footing, and the ultimate competition lies in the commanding capability.
As far as the application of magic crossbows is concerned, Hudson is not boasting; his experience is the richest on the whole Continent of Aslante.
In a sense, the magic crossbow’s dazzling performance in the war owes much to Hudson.
If it weren’t for his insistence on concentrating the use of magic crossbows, no one would know the power of this tool when utilized on a large scale.
Aside from different forms and complex manufacturing processes, these magic crossbows are essentially just copies of old-fashioned rifles.
Anyone with a bit of strategic insight would know the profound impact the widespread use of these magic crossbows – which test the state’s production capacity – could have on the situation of the continent.
Setting aside the wild thoughts in his head, Hudson once again beca busy.
He had hoped that after the end of the war he would be able to relax for a while upon returning to his territory, but reality proved that this was a vain hope.
First he was busy receiving new territories, then adjusting the managent, and finally he happened to uncover the conspiracy of those unscrupulous rchants.
After all this work, he is now set to start supervising his territories.
Having been absent from his territory for such a long ti, it was necessary for him to reassure his subjects of his presence, otherwise sothing unexpected might happen.
…
“Miss Isabel, the Count has just gone out to supervise his territory, perhaps you could co at another ti?”
Tom attempted to dissuade her in a low and quiet voice.
Clearly, he was very wary of a woman suspected of being Lord’s mistress, and he hardly dared to look her in the face.
Not only Tom, but as the first woman Hudson brought back, Isabel holds a special status in the Manor House.
She could not be regarded as the lady of the house, but she seed to have stayed for too long as a guest.
The only reasonable and acceptable explanation left for everybody was that she was the Lord’s mistress.
“Is it a coincidence that the Count happens to be out when I co over?”
Isabel asked with a chuckling smile.
By her outstanding social skills and being the Lord’s mistress, she felt quite at ease during her days in the Manor House.
The most crucial point is, no matter who she faced, she always greeted them cordially with warmth, leaving everyone with a good impression.
The past two years were the most comfortable days for Isabel.
Resources for magical training were abundant, there was no need for political maneuvering, and no worries about being spied upon.
But with Hudson’s return, things have changed.
Living like the lady of the house while being a captive was possible because Hudson wasn’t present and nobody could make out their relationship.
On top of that, Isabel had always acted properly, spending her days training magic or practising skills related to playing music, chess, calligraphy, singing, and dancing.
She only took so resources for magical training from the Manor House.
Even Baron Redman didn’t say anything about it, let alone anyone else.
However, what’s fake will be eventually exposed.
She could deceive others, but she couldn’t fool the real master.
Isabel doesn’t think Hudson would be easy to manipulate.
